While waiting for it to reach the minimum distance tomorrow, at Virtual Telescope we imaged the Near-Earth Asteroid 2014 DX110 while it was showing among the clouds.

Above is a 60 seconds exposure, remotely taken with the Planewave 17 robotic unit. The Paramount ME mount was tracking the apparent motion of the minor planet, so stares left a trail, while the asteroid looks as a point of light. At the imaging time, this ~30 meters rock was at about 1.5 millions of km from the Earth.

If everyone reading this right now would donate something, our fundraiser would be done in a few days. Please, donate and receive an exclusive, AMAZING image of potentially hazardous asteroid 2004 BL86 taken taken by the Virtual Telescope!
